Sandra, a 22 year old young lady, who is the only girl and youngest child in her family was experiencing all the feelings that accompany a possible unexpected pregnancy test. Her parents didn't allow her to have a boyfriend, which means they didn't have any idea she was already dating. Three weeks ago Sandra came to Center for LIFE looking for a pregnancy test. The test was negative, which made her feel relieved. During the counseling session she got to know about God's love for her, no matter her past, her present and even her future. She recognized she was looking for love in the wrong places, that moment, she decided to pray asking Christ to become the Lord of her life.
Since the first day she arrived, she has already come back to Center for LIFE a couple times more. She is following all the abstinence courses and is sure that as single as she is, abstinence is her best choice. Recently Noemi, the counselor who is accompanying as mentor asked her if she would like to attend an evangelical church. Sandra's reply was very enthusiastic and encouraging for Noemi, "Yes! In fact, I've always wanted to attend an evangelical church". Noemi, is really excited to be able to help someone who was just born into a new life and who wants to develop her faith.
Every time a young lady recognize their need for Jesus in their hearts to empower their lives, there is a great joy. It makes me wonder what a joy there must be in the heaven.
